The megabase-sized fungal genome of <i>Rhizoctonia solani</i> assembled from nanopore reads only

2016-11-01

Abstract excerpt

The ability to quickly obtain accurate genome sequences of eukaryotic pathogens at low costs provides a tremendous opportunity to identify novel targets for therapeutics, develop pesticides with increased target specificity and breed for resistance in food crops. Here, we present the first report of the ~54 MB eukaryotic genome sequence of Rhizoctonia solani, an important pathogenic fungal species of maize, using...
